Connecting your TV

Connecting a DVD player (with component video) and a VCR

This connection allows you to watch DVD, VCR, and TV programs, and record TV programs.

Your TV has ColorStream® (component video) inputs. Connecting your TV to a DVD player with component video inputs (such as a Toshiba DVD player with ColorStream®) can greatly enhance picture quality and realism.

–To record one TV program while watching another TV program, tune the VCR to the channel to record, and tune the TV to the channel to watch.

–To record a TV program while watching a DVD, tune the VCR to the channel to record, and select ColorStream HD-1 on the TV (see “Selecting the antenna input” on page 21).

You will need:

•two coaxial cables

•one set of standard A/V cables

•one pair of audio cables

•one set of component video cables

DVD Player with component video

Note:

For the highest possible picture quality, use component video cables (or a DVI-D single- link cable) between the TV and DVD player. You can connect component video cables to either set of ColorStream jacks on the TV (HD-1 or HD-2).

The ColorStream HD-1 and HD-2 jacks can be used with Progressive (480p, 720p) and Interlaced (480i,1080i) scan systems. A 1080i signal will provide the best picture performance.

If your DVD player does not have component video (or DVI/HDCP) use the S-video connections (plus the standard audio connections) instead of the ColorStream connections. Do not connect both S-Video and standard video cables to VIDEO1 (or VIDEO2) at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable. See page 9.

For DVI-HDCP connection, see page 13.

The unauthorized recording, use, distribution, or revision of television programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under the Copyright Laws of the United States and other countries, and may subject you to civil and criminal liability.
